Greek NT γενομένης δὲ
Peshitta ܘܟܕ ܗܘܝ
Vulgate facta

Greek combines the aorist participle γενομένης with the postpositive δέ (a connective particle giving 'now when it had become'); the Peshitta renders the temporal clause with ܘܟܕ ('and when') plus the verb ܗܘܝ, while the Vulgate uses only the participle facta without rendering δέ, since Latin lacks a true equivalent for the resumptive particle.

Greek NT ὥρας ἕκτης
Peshitta ܫܬ ܫܥܝܢ
Vulgate hora sexta

Greek and Latin place the cardinal/ordinal after the noun (ὥρας ἕκτης, hora sexta, 'the sixth hour'); the Syriac inverts the order to ܫܬ ܫܥܝܢ ('six hours'), using a cardinal number plus plural noun rather than an ordinal, a normal Syriac idiom for clock-time expressions.

Greek NT ἐγένετο
Peshitta ܗܘܐ
Vulgate factæ sunt

Greek uses the singular aorist ἐγένετο; the Peshitta likewise singular ܗܘܐ; the Vulgate renders with the plural periphrastic factæ sunt to agree with the plural-form noun tenebræ, a Latin morphological adjustment rather than a semantic divergence.

Greek NT ὅλην τὴν
Peshitta ܐܪܥܐ
Vulgate terram

Greek τὴν γῆν and Latin terram and Syriac ܐܪܥܐ all denote 'the land/earth'; the Greek alone carries the explicit article, which Latin and Syriac do not require, though all three are semantically equivalent here in denoting the whole region.

Greek NT ἕως (he'ōs)
Peshitta ܠܫܥܐ ܬܫܥ
Vulgate horam nonam

As with the sixth hour, Greek and Latin use the ordinal following the noun (ὥρας ἐνάτης, horam nonam, 'the ninth hour'); the Syriac ܠܫܥܐ ܬܫܥ again employs the cardinal number 'nine' after the singular noun, consistent with Syriac time-reckoning idiom.
